For the first time, Varilux brings the corrective power of wavefront, similar to the technology used in laser surgery, to progressive lenses. With Varilux Physio.
After years of research, Varilux has developed an innovative design and manufacturing process—W.A.V.E. Technology—which literally corrects progressive vision by calculating and eliminating many higher order aberrations that diminish visual acuity. The result is an advanced general-purpose lens that delivers unsurpassed progressive performance to all presbyopes.
W.A.V.E. technology is a breakthrough in design and manufacturing process
- Design
For the first time, VARILUX engineers can analyze an entire beam of light (not just a single ray), so they can identify distortion and correct it to achieve optimal acuity. Patented, proprietary software then scans the entire surface of the lens, calculating the targeted optical function for each point, for each gaze direction. The result is a highly advanced lens design that reduces or eliminates many higher order aberrations to deliver unsurpassed acuity.
- Manufacturing
Design as advanced as Varilux Physio requires manufacturing just as progressive. This breakthrough 360°digital surfacing process is able to apply even the most complex surface designs of Varilux Physio with unprecedented, point by point accuracy: 1/10 micron.
- VARILUX PHYSIO: FRONT DESIGN
Most Presbyopes will get the full benefit of Varilux Physio with front design only. Thanks to W.A.V.E. Technology these single-surface lenses dramatically reduce higher order aberrations and provide far greater acuity in all fields of vision. For wearers who: - Are new presbyopes - Are Already Varilux wearers - Want to upgrade from another PAL.
- VARILUX PHYSIO 360°:
FRONT & BACK DESIGN With W.A.V.E. Technology's proprietary calculation software, the back side of the lens can now be computed point by point and optimized to complement and enhance even the most complex front designs. W.A.V.E. Technology's patented 360°digital surfacing process allows these complimentary front and back designs to be applied to Varilux Physio 360° with absolute precision, for the ultimate performance.
- Also for wearers who:
- Want the most advanced and accurate progressive vision
- Have a complex sphere, cylinder, or axis prescriptions
- Want the sharpest distance vision possible
- Spend much of their time in an office setting and need wide corridors in near and intermediate fields
- Have not adapted to other PALs due to lens design limitations.
